Troian Beauty (Final Fantasy IV)(Piano Opera)(Nobuo Uematsu)

[@mediamastermenard2858]

Omg this is my favorite FF4 song. It's criminally underrated!!

[@denverattaway136]

Uematsu's best composition. A good rendition always brings a tear to my eye. I'm a musician of 25 years and this piece is up there with Debussy for me.

[@ZealKingdom]

One of my all-time favorite Final Fantasy songs. No wonder Edward just wanted to lay around all day. I would too if I could listen to this.

[@natebroadus8474]

This song is so damn delicate on piano. It takes me right back to the moment I saw "Troia" for the first time in FFIV. I was too young then to make the connection, but looking back it brings to mind images of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon--or at least what I've seen of them in paintings. The Earth Crystal's jewel, Troia.❤

[@KaraComparetto]

Yeah I feel like these themes speak to us more now that we're grown up!

[@guggenheim914]

this song never fails to choke me up... your version is absolutely wonderful :)

[@resonaire]

This is one of my absolute favorite tracks, and your rendition was AMAZING! Thank you!

[@KaraComparetto]

Wow thank you!

[@DoblajesSkaDs7]

Easily one of the bests song from FFIV. Thank you so much :)

[@JohnOethGuitar]

Beautiful!

[@gaelm9071]

Thank you for those wonderful pianistic moments..

[@7thangelad586]

One of my favorite tunes from my most beloved game of the series. You’ve done a simply marvelous job!

[@SyncopaticSimon]

You just captured the essence of this wonderful song 😊 this is amazing !

[@nathanhall7891]

Thanks for finding such a great arrangement. I've always loved this town theme from my (almost always) favorite FF game. This version conveys the same feel as the town did in FFIV (called FFII in US) in its time. The design, flowers (nice touch adding those for the video), water, other details, and careful arrangement of the town, along with its unique culture and music, made created such a memorable impact that it reamins a favorite theme of mine decades later. Everything about the town was beautiful, and this perfomance expresses that beauty perfectly. Just when the buildup after the two minute mark seems like it will go overboard, you smoothly roll into a lovely finish, keeping the piece wonderfully danceable. This is my choice for the next time I waltz in a flower garden. Thanks again, and have fun finishing your FF and KH selections!

[@PKFlashOmega]

Beautifully done; I absolutely love your pacing on this piece.

[@tarcmaylor]

One of my favorite themes from FF4, and I absolutely love the arrangement. Beautiful work as always!

[@KaraComparetto]

Thank you Marc!!

[@tbonesays]

Kara would be right at home in Troia Castle

Kara Comparetto - Troian Beauty: fitting in many ways! Beautiful music! :)

[@rich4469]

Well done as always madam. Easily among the best on this or any FF game.

[@yunakitty2]

Thank you for this one!! A favorite from when I was a teenager.

[@Maywind84]

Absolutely amazing and perfectly beautiful! ^^

[@seraph82]

oh man this is my fav from FF4! Kara, you're the coolest! Edit: what you've done to the original is absolutely *stunning.* Wow.

[@Nystagmuses]

Amazing FF theme and amazing the way you play it!

[@terrysiu123]

Great, Kara ,we have been against the covid 19, wish your family and you keep healthy, listening more from you, amazing grace 😍

[@philipbrowning3544]

I hope you beat the COVID without too much trouble. Take care and best of luck!

Thank you for this upload. Your music is an inspiration for my own Final Fantasy Piano exploits.

A Kara classic. I love it!

[@PaiRhoRaven]

This was just great from end to end. Love this song and you really nailed it.

[@KaraComparetto]

Ohhh this is one of my favs 😭😭😭

[@bukx21]

Beautiful playing and beautiful Kara.

[@1upmushroom13]

Kara, this is one of my favorite themes from FF4, my favorite FF game. This arrangement was also very nice. I hope you make more FF4 piano videos in the future.

[@KaraComparetto]

Thank you Kevin! And also want to say thank you for your kofis, it means a lot. I’m sorry I haven’t responded to them yet but I have read your messages!! ❤️

[@1upmushroom13]

@@KaraComparetto You're very welcome, Kara! I know you have many followers, so I understand it's unrealistic to expect a response from you immediately or one at all to everything I say. With the amount of followers you have, I've always been surprised and sometimes even dumbstruck at how much you are able to engage with and remember individual people. There is no way I would ever read or reply to as many comments as you if I was in your place and I have no idea sometimes how you still maintain your real life outside the internet! I would have given up trying to respond so much, but that goes to show how different we are on this note lol! So, I try to remember your comment load and to not hold or assume any hard feelings if you don't respond. I know I'm just one person in all of these comments, and it's nothing personal if you can't get to my message(s). Given that, I just comment saying what I want to say without placing expectations on you for a response. I love writing my thoughts out at length, so I know even more that doing that makes it even harder to respond lol! If you respond, then cool, but if not, that's cool too. There are no worries if you don't respond.

[@1upmushroom13]

@@KaraComparetto I should have mentioned that I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing that you respond as much as you do. I mean, it could be bad if you're neglecting real life, but I can't judge you on that since I live far away from you lol! If you are, then I would definitely not want you to get distracted reading my comments, by the way. At any rate, I was more expressing my surprise at your engagement and I definitely think it's very impressive. I noticed that you used to respond more and on more platforms, but it's understandable to do less.

[@specialnewb9821]

One of my favorites, always used to hum along in game. Love this arrangement!

[@DrumBandQc]

It is wonderful! This rendition made me think of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star : A simple and beautfiul melody, played over and over again with multiple layers of complexity!

[@KaraComparetto]

Thank you for your support and for being active on discord and twitch as well!

[@gabz4497]

Not only incredibly talented, but also seems the nicest sweetest person on youtube/twitch. Excellent as always, thanks Kara! Looking forward to the FF7 album

[@KaraComparetto]

Wish it wasn't taking forever to get approved but it should be soon!

[@annoynymouse1146]

Even more beautiful than I remembered... I just remembered, the shevat theme from xenogears reminded me of this one! How could I forget that...

[@KaraComparetto]

Oh yeah the beginning!

[@azuyin]

I'm so happy you're still making videos!

[@KaraComparetto]

I can't stop!! I'm trying to be more consistent

[@azuyin]

@@KaraComparetto You inspired me to start playing again! I absolutely love your rendition of Theme of Love from a few years back

[@graytheyarestairs]

I remember being in a bus in my travels and thinking this song was one of the best melodies i had heard

[@Romess1]

This has always been one of my favorite FF songs of them all. It's so refreshing to hear it in a new way like this especially with the transpositions. You really took it apart and knocked it out of the park. Absolutely love it!

[@IsrafelCello]

Beautiful playing, Kara!!

[@KaraComparetto]

THAT WOULD BE GORGEOUS!!!

[@nathanhall7891]

Make it happen!

[@Ironfungus]

This theme is familiar to me, as I've played FFIV, but I can't recall where it plays! Arrangements like these really stand up well to classical music IMO, very well done as usual!

[@danballe]

Read below, should be around when you go to the Caves where the dwarfs lives ,Getting the Earth Crystal. I cannot say for sure since I have not played FFIV in ages

[@KaraComparetto]

Yeah I don't even recall hearing it at all XD but it's still so pretty!

[@nathanhall7891]

@@KaraComparetto I think it was in Troia town's castle. I'm going through FFIV again and will post when I hear it. I definitely associate it with Troia town, which has distinct flowers and water effects. The town (castle included) was quite impressive within the original game, at least in its time.

[@IroAmo]

Thank you for another wonderful and lovely piece.

[@SuperMusicMaker]

I can tell you really enjoy playing this. Fantastic work!

[@heritagekebek3029]

Thanks to you, sweet Kara 💖

That performance was so beautiful, Kara. Thank you for the music today.

[@KaraComparetto]

Thank you for your support everywhere Aaron!

[@RicoLen1]

I have to admit I was a little concerned when it started. I thought it was going to be too slow and too simplistic, but that sure turned around as it got going! Now I just wish it were longer, cause I've already listened to it 3 times, and I want more! It's always great to see a new upload from you, Kara. :)

[@KaraComparetto]

Yeah i find with most good arrangements you have to stick around for the whole thing to really get the full experience- just like classical music!

[@MrDoug56]

Kara you're awesome!! I love your videos very much!!!

[@avstructmech]

That sounded great, Kara, and you look great too!♥️
